                <etym xml:lang="ru">Быть может, восходит к *<hi rendition="#rend_italic">vahu</hi>- ‘хороший’ с утратой начального
                    <hi rendition="#rend_italic">v</hi>-, как в <ref type="xr" target="#entry_ævz-"/>, <ref type="xr" target="#entry_Acyrūxs"/>, <ref type="xr" target="#entry_acamongæ"/> и др.
                    Иранское <hi rendition="#rend_italic">vahu</hi>- с уверенностью распознается в скифских именах: Βαγδοχος =
                    *<hi rendition="#rend_italic">baxta</hi>-<hi rendition="#rend_italic">vahu</hi>- и др. (<bibl><ref type="bibl" target="#ref_ОЯФ_I"/><biblScope>160, 186</biblScope></bibl>); поэтому есть все основания
                    полагать, что оно существовало в прошлом в осетинском и могло сохраниться в
                    устойчивых выражениях типа вышеприведенного, а также в сложных словах; ср.
                    ʒæb-æx [<ref type="xr" target="#entry_ʒæbæx"/>], æx-con [<ref type="xr" target="#entry_æxcon"/>], æx-cul(?) [<ref type="xr" target="#entry_æxcul"/>], xorz-æx(?) [<ref type="xr" target="#entry_xorzæx"/>], fyd-æx(?) [<ref type="xr" target="#entry_fydæx"/>].</etym>
                <etym xml:lang="en">Probably, it traces back to *<hi rendition="#rend_italic">vahu</hi>- ‘good’ with the loss of
                    the initial <hi rendition="#rend_italic">v</hi>-, like in <ref type="xr" target="#entry_ævz-"/>, <ref type="xr" target="#entry_Acyrūxs"/>, <ref type="xr" target="#entry_acamongæ"/> etc. The <mentioned xml:id="mentioned_d5442e126" xml:lang="ira"><lang/>
                        <w>vahu-</w></mentioned> is definitely recognized in Scythian names:
                    Βαγδοχος = *<hi rendition="#rend_italic">baxta</hi>-<hi rendition="#rend_italic">vahu</hi>- etc. (<bibl><ref type="bibl" target="#ref_ОЯФ_I"/><biblScope>160, 186</biblScope></bibl>); so there are all reasons to
                    suppose that the word existed in Ossetic and could remain in collocations above
                    and in complex words as well; cf. <hi rendition="#rend_italic">ʒæb-æx</hi> [see <ref type="xr" target="#entry_ʒæbæx"/>], æx-con [see <ref type="xr" target="#entry_æxcon"/>], æx-cul(?) [see <ref type="xr" target="#entry_æxcul"/>], xorz-æx(?) [<ref type="xr" target="#entry_xorzæx"/>], fyd-æx(?) [<ref type="xr" target="#entry_fydæx"/>].</etym>
